Terry,

I use the rubidium clock as a frequency source, not a time reference. It tells 
me how well adjusted are the Nixie watches that I run for a few days before 
shipping to customers. This was the first time in over five years that I even 
bothered to set the atomic clock's display to within a second of UTC.

I got all excited to record the event on my MOD-6.
I even turned off the date cycling every minute.
I even setup with my phone to record it.
 
Shit!   I forgot to turn off the temperature from cycling.   :(

RE: [neonixie-l] Re: Leap second...

2016-12-31 Thread Scott McInness
The most recent leap second was inserted on 30 June 2015 at 23:59:60 UTC, so 
whatever happened 18 months should happen again this time. Note that the leap 
second is inserted at 23:59:60 UTC, so your local time zone will affect when 
you actually see the leap second – it’s about eight hours away.

 

Have a read of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second if you want to know 
more about why.

Should both display the same (as Jan 1  00:00:00).

 

 If you have any transition effects that run at the top on the minute they will 
start as usual and then exit with the correct time showing. You should also get

We convert the time info in the GPS NMEA sentence to a 32 bit elapsed

RPTR radio link.

So.
Dec 31,  23:59:60
Jan   1,  00:00:00

Should both display the same (as Jan 1  00:00:00).

 If you have any transition effects that run at the top on the minute they
will start as usual and then exit with the correct time showing. You should
also get a  "SYNCED" message as the clock readjusts its internal RTC to
match the received GPS time.

But if the GPS module itself gets confused, who knows what'll happen. Could
be fun to watch.

I wonder how my WWVB based clocks will handle that? Might have to stay up

Sure. Although compared to the top-viewing B7011, it might take two hands for 
the side-viewing CD47...

Yes, the anode mesh is large enough to allow small pets inside.

The photo of the 7011 being held in your hand is priceless; really shows the 
true size of this beast. 
Can you post one of you holding the CD47 ?

Love the anode mesh..  Looks like it was cut out of window screen material.
